Pestering
Ms. Ma said, “That is right! Our elder brother never does anything so selfish!”
The two of them complimented and cooperated with each other, spitting and shouting as if they were definitely going to get what they wanted. soon, they became increasingly impatient and asked Ms. Xu and Qiao Xuan to get them whatever they wanted instead of wasting their time here, claiming that they had many other things to deal with!
Qiao Xuan turned to look at her mother-in-law.
She had already told them that all the things were paid from her dowry, so Ms. Fang was not in a position to cut in. She threw a look at Qiao Xuan, suggesting that she could do whatever she wanted.

Ms. Fang sneered and chipped in. “Ms. Qiao, don’t worry, we are from the countryside, but we have dignity. We don’t put our hands in our daughter-in-law’s dowry!”
“Okay!” Qiao Xuan blinked her beautiful eyes and nodded with belief. “You are right, there is no one so shameless in our family!”
Ms. Niu and Ms. Ma got so annoyed that their faces twisted!
Ms. Fang was alone in the past, and was not in a match against the other women in the family, considering that Eldest Uncle was always on the family’s side. Now Ms. Qiao was here, and she was very hard to deal with.
“Okay, okay, you are so selfish!”
“Oh but honestly, Ms. Qiao, you are counting money for those who are out to sell you! You keep saying things about your dowry, but haven’t you noticed that you are buying those things for your husband’s family. You are being coaxed to spend all your money!”
This implicit blame made everyone from the first section of the family turn pale. Ms. Fang bellowed. “What are you saying?”
“Mom.” Qiao Xuan laughed. “I love spending money for my husband’s family. That is not anyone’s business!”
Everyone present. “…”
“Ms. Qiao…” Ms. Fang was startled. She was so moved that she had no idea what else to say.
Qiao Xuan raised her eyebrows. “As for people outside my family… I don’t care what happens to them.”

Ms. Fang sneered. “We are living in separate homes! Are you too blind to see that every family with many siblings in our village is living like this!”
Ms. Fang had said those words before, but it never worked. Yet at this moment, she felt that it was nice to say these words out loud.
When the eldest man in the family was gone, brothers had started to live in separate homes and were dealing with their own business affairs. They even spent Chinese New Year in a separate way as well! Brothers helped each other when they were in need, but that was all.
Brothers could offer help, if someone was in need. But it was never done out of selfishness.
No families would just come to the others’ families as if they were still living together.
That was like making themselves turn into a laughing stock in front of the entire village!
Those from the second and third sections of the family kept telling others that the first section of the family were working for them as if they were their servants.Those words were nothing to Eldest Brother who just wanted to keep the brotherhood well and fine, but they were annoying to everyone else from the first section.
Ms. Niu sneered and pulled away Ms. Ma. “Since you are so cruel, there is nothing we can say or do about it! Also, we are not shameless people! We don’t care about your stuff, we can live on our own happily!”
